Along the 3,000+ miles of Mississippi River Trail you'll find hundreds of highlights. However, the section that runs along the river between the Twin Cities might just be some of the best. The views across the river and of the city skylines are incredible, and the variety of parks and other amenities dotted along the path are unmatched.
